My son bedroom has carpet and I put those square letters in foam over carpet 3 years ago. I want to pull the letters and put these tiles over the carpet. I was going to spray the carpet with Benefect, a organic disinfectant, let dry and install these...

I don't think the connecting tabs would hold up the constant flexing of having something as soft as carpet under them. You might be able to do it if the carpet is indoor/outdoor very short closed loop like used in offices and high traffic areas, with no pad underneath... but that isn't typical of bedrooms. If you put a very heavy underlayment down over the carpet first... maybe it will work. Or remove the carpet and put down a heavy foam rubber material (costly) to provide your noise dampening.

Clean the carpet first, really well so the scotch hard doesn't seal in the stain. Then you can spray it on clean, still wet carpet and let dry.

I wouldn't use the double-sided tape on carpet. It would probably cause damage. You could try looping masking tape to apply it to your floor, but if kids are running all over it it probably wouldn't last long.

I wash the carpet the first time with hot water and much less soap than they recommend and then I go over the carpet once more quickly with just hot water to pull up any soap residue and more dirt. It works really well and the carpet stay clean longer because their is no soap residue, that's your downfall. Hope this helps, I've been doing it that way for many years.

Clean as best as you can while wet and the rest will have to wear off. There might be a chemical solution bit it could ruin your carpet.

I have carpet so no problems with mine but you could try the rubber grip mats used to keep kitchen rugs in place or place a heavy toy or bed on the edge or corners of the playmat.

If your carpet is truly white (not off-white), you should be able to use this product. Keep in mind that the active ingredient is chlorine bleach (i.e., laundry bleach, like Clorox). As with any harsh chemical, you should apply a small amount in an inconspicuous area to see the effect. Also, be prepared for your carpet to smell like chlorine for a few days after application...

I installed mine over a carpet kit I did notice in the directions. There was area explaining how to install over plastic vinyl bed liners

I used it on concrete. I would read the instructions on the bottle or call the manufacture to make sure it is safe to use on carpets.

When they first came out years ago they definitely marketed them to have refills, since you can take apart the two sides and re-cover them. I guess now you would just have to use carpet??

I had the same situation. On half of it I used 2-sided carpet tape and nothing on the other half. After 4 months I can't tell any difference. The occasional tile (fewer than 10%) in both sections didn't seem to lay perfectly flat so I put two widths of tape underneath them and solve the problem. These tiles are perfect for a basement.

The label on the bottle states "...will also work on old deep-set stains and odors." The label also cautions that it may be necessary to lift the carpeting to treat the carpet pad AND the flooring beneath the pad. In those cases expect to wait one-hour after treating before blotting any excess Nature's Miracle. As always, read and follow the label directions for the best results.

I haven't tried that but it sounds like a good idea. It's been awhile since I've needed the product but as I recall, step one is to soak up and remove as much urine as possible, then use the Urine Off to neutralize and leavings. So, if you're carpet isn't drenched already, that might be a good idea. I do know that if you have an area rug, oriental carpet for example, you want to roll it up and clean the hard floor underneath and then clean the carpet.

Not very well. Gorilla Glue would be a better choice. The original brown formula. Wet both pieces, and clamp in place, as it foams considerably. Or use construction grade subflooring adhesive.

i use folex carpet cleaner. i spray just enough to clean the surface, not so much that it soaks through. there is no odor. works well.

I have never tried to install these gripper treads over carpet. I put them outside on the stairs where it gets slippery. I don't think they were designed or intended for carpet but I'm sure you could try it if you had a good staple gun or something.

Mark the floor lightly with a pencil or other removable marking pen around the risers. remove the risers (with some help, of course) and put some double sided adhesive tape on part or all of the riser that rests on the floor. Return the risers to the marked spot. That should do the trick. The risers should come with rubber bottoms, though. Worth suggesting to the manufacturer. No problem on carpeted floors, though.
